I was trying to use external library ncurses, however I did not found throughout tutorials and tried the same with ray lib, but it doesn't work too(((. When my task.json is like this this error appears:
{

"${file}",
"-o",

But when it is like this: (I changed only this parts so I am showing only them)
"command": "/opt/homebrew/cellar/raylib/5.0/include",
"args": [
"-fcolor-diagnostics",
"-fansi-escape-codes",
"-g",

],
This error appears:

/bin/sh: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin: is a directory

I am changing the command line by the way. Helps pls.
Probably like this
"args": [
"-fcolor-diagnostics",
"-fansi-escape-codes",
"-g",
"-I/opt/homebrew/cellar/raylib/5.0/include"
"${file}",
"-o",
"${fileDirname}/${fileBasenameNoExtension}",
"-L/opt/homebrew/cellar/raylib/5.0/lib"
"-lraylib",
],
Use -I
to say where the header files are located, use -L
to say where the library files are located (here I guessing that they are in /opt/homebrew/cellar/raylib/5.0/lib), library options should go at the end.
If you are going to build using tasks.json it's important that you understand the different options you can give to g++.
